Migrating from arvados-node-manager to arvados-dispatch-cloud

Choose a node

The dispatch service can run on any host that can connect to the Arvados API service, the cloud provider's API, and the SSH service on cloud VMs. In the following example it runs on the same node as the API server and controller.

Prepare key pair and worker VM image

Generate an SSH private key with no passphrase. Save it in the cluster configuration file (see PrivateKey in the example below).

If you are using Azure, the dispatcher will create a login account and install your public key automatically, so you do not need to save the corresponding public key in an authorized_keys file in the VM image (or anywhere else, for that matter).

Prepare a worker VM image. It needs docker, arv-mount (python-arvados-fuse), and crunch-run. The version of crunch-run must be new enough to include 2873d55ea (TODO: when merged/published, give minimum package version instead of commit).

Update cluster configuration file

In /etc/arvados/config.yml, add configuration items for the dispatch service.

Stop crunch-dispatch-slurm

Stop and disable the crunch-dispatch-slurm service, and uninstall the package to make sure it doesn't start after the next reboot/upgrade.

# systemctl stop crunch-dispatch-slurm
# systemctl disable crunch-dispatch-slurm
# apt-get remove crunch-dispatch-slurm

Containers that have already been locked and submitted to SLURM will make their way through the SLURM queue, but newly queued containers will be left for arvados-dispatch-cloud to run.

Install arvados-dispatch-cloud

# apt-get install arvados-dispatch-cloud

Verify the service is running

$ token="example-secret-management-token" 
$ curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $token" http://localhost:9005/metrics

Verify the service is functional

Watch the dispatcher's logs while you run an Arvados container:

# journalctl -ocat -fu arvados-dispatch-cloud
